FINALLY!!!!
So I am finally able to get online AT HOME!! My phone will only let me read posts not actually respond. So I am one happy wife today.
I have been home with MIL for a week now and it has been so crazy. We have had issues with BIL and with her family in general. Things have been rough to say the least and we are hoping things get better BUT we are considering other options.
Medically wise she has been having a rough few days and we are noticing lots of changes in her. Some of which H and I know we can't deal with since we are not medical professionals.
Our marriage has also had some issues. 1 of which is the alone time we have lost. We went from being able to have the house to ourself all the time to never being alone. We have had a few chances to get out of the house just the 2 of us but the first time was for his work.
Also money has been so tight since I had to quit my job and he works construction. Thank goodness MIL can afford to help us out somewhat even though we have told her it's not about the money (which it's not) but we still need to pay our bills and our bills are going up since it's summer AND we have an extra person in our house.
Other than that things are good I guess!
Re: FINALLY!!!!
I am amazed at how well you have been handling the whole situation... I can really only relate to the small part about not having privacy... my parents closed on their house 3 days after our wedding, and have been living with us ever since. We were on our honeymoon, etc, for a few weeks, and my father was walking the Camino de Santiago for a month, but now we're all home, and it gets a little tight- but to add the additional stressors that you have? Wow.
You're doing such a great thing, and it sounds like you're handling it really well. I think I speak for all of your fellow May brides that we're thinking of you, and sending lots of T&P, and wish we could help!
I agree with PPs, you seem to handling this really well! I wish you and your new hubby the best, and I'll keep y'all in my prayers.
In the meantime maybe TN can keep you distracted and entertained for a little while during the day
